As we age, our spinal discs break down, or degenerate which may result in degenerative disc disease in some people. This is osteoarthritis of the spinal discs. The main symptom of degenerative disc disorder is pain: acupuncture can alleviate this pain and also reduce related symptoms like inflammation and weakness.
Success Conceiving in 2 Weeks
I started seeing Monica after working with two other acupuncturists for infertility over the course of nine months without any success. She came highly recommended and I was impressed right away with how she explained her philosophy on treating infertility with acupuncture. She put me at ease by giving me practical advice and by explaining why and how she would use each acupuncture point. She also addressed diet and herbs, which were important to me. I left my first treatment feeling encouraged, optimistic, and more cared for than I had with previous practitioners. I started seeing her weekly and was amazed when only two weeks later I was able to shift my care from infertility treatment to maternity treatment! I continued to see her for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, which was extremely helpful both for sustaining the pregnancy and for reducing nausea. I would strongly encourage anyone in a similar situation to seek Monica’s help!
